Chinas transformation of government functions lags behind that of its economic growth.了解政府的行政行为是公民基本权力之一，政务公开是政府的应尽的职责。公开行政信息是已经是政府管理中必不可少的部分。同时，政务公开也是WTO的一项主要原则，被列在WTO的大部分文件中。在中国加入WTO后，被要求在这方面做得更好。中国的政府职能转变落后于它的经济增长。A fresh move the opening of government administration still needs improvement.

Many of the calls come from Guangdong, Zhejiang, Heilongjiang provinces and Hong Kong SAR, inquiring about subscription procedures.在去年底，位于遵义路上的北京市政府，每周一到周五在其西大门入口处放置接待桌以接受市民来征订北京市政府公告。早在2002年政府公告向公众公开后，编辑部的电话就一直响着。许多电话来自广东、浙江、黑龙江和香港特区，来咨询征订程序。The bulletin, which contains government regulations, administrative orders and decisions, is popularly known as a “red-title document” and is a mystery to most people, because it only reached leaders above bureau level in the past. 包括政府规章、行政命令和决定的公文过去常称为红头文件，对大多数人而言是神秘的，因为它过去只发到局级以上干部。Wei Guiqin, director of the Beijing Huiyuan Law Office, is among the first to subscribe to the bulletin. “The public distribution of the bulletin helps us a lot in our job,” he said. 魏贵勤，北京惠元律师事务所所长，是第一批来征订公告的。他说：“公告的公开发行对我们的工作帮助很大。”The government of many other provinces and cities have also opened their bulletins to the public, including Henan and Shanxi provinces, and cities such as Guangzhou, Wuhan, Qingdao and Yinchuan.

However, she was soon asked to close down, as she failed to follow relevant procedures. She sought assistance at the Supermarket of Administrative Affairs, and with guidance by the staff, Huang quickly obtained all necessary procedures. 五年前，黄松基，南京一名下岗女工，投资5 万元办了一个育儿园。然而，她很快被勒令关门，因为她没有履行相关手续。她在政务超市寻求帮助，在工作人员的帮助下，她很快办理了所有手续。What is the Supermarket of Administrative Affairs and how effective is it? 什么是政务超市？它的效果如何？The first supermarket was launched by the government of Xiaguan District, Nanjing City, in the residential communities of Xiaoshi and Rehenanlu on October 16, 2000. the government set up its offices in a big hall to handle various administrative affairs, including more than 40 services related to civil affairs, employment, municipal construction, economy, handing of complaints and law enforcement.

Similar supermarkets have opened in Shenyang, Shanghai and Fuzhou. 南京这种行政服务“超市”已经在整个国家产生了正面的影响。在沈阳、上海和福州都建了类似的超市。The “supermarket” in Shanghai, known as the Center of Residential Affairs, now has 80 branches in the entire city, offering more than 50 services. A civil affairs official said that in the next three years, every community and town would set up such as a “supermarket” to form a network covering the entire area. 上海的“超市”，作为居民事务的中心，现在整个城市有80个分支，提供50项服务。一名国内事务的政府官员说在未来三年，每一个社区和集镇都要建类似的“超市”以形成覆盖整个地区的网络。Media reports recently stated that relevant departments have planned to set up a multi-functional and multi-level service system throughout the country, which offers services on personnel matters, domicile registration, matrimonial registration, enterprise registration, tax payment, license distribution and the approval of land utilization.
